Belize Weather Forecast: August 16, 2020
General Situation:
The Caribbean Sea Convection associated with an upper-level cyclonic circulation over Cuba has generally diminished overnight. The east Pacific monsoon trough is enhancing scattered moderate to isolated strong convection over the SE Caribbean, mainly S of 14N. Otherwise mainly dry conditions prevail. See the Special Features section above for information on the potential for heavy rain in the far NE Caribbean from Tropical Storm Josephine today and Mon as it passes N and E of the basin. Moderate trades exist across most of the basin, with some locally fresh east winds occurring off the coast of Colombia. Tropical Josephine will pass well north of the Leeward and Virgin Islands today and tonight, then move farther away from the area Mon. Moderate to fresh trade winds will continue across the south- central Caribbean through early week, with strongest winds expected near the coast of Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela. A strong tropical wave is forecast to cross the Windward Islands late today into early Mon, then reside in the eastern Caribbean early this week, where it has a low chance of tropical formation in the next 5 days.
